NAME

CLUSTER NAME - preamble - identifying Slony-I cluster

SYNOPSIS

CLUSTERNAME= [ clustername;]

DESCRIPTION

Must be the very first statement in every slonik script. It defines the
namespace in which all Slony-I specific functions, procedures, tables
and sequences are defined. The namespace name is built by prefixing the
given string literal with an underscore. This namespace will be
identical in all databases that participate in the same replication
group.
No user objects are supposed to live in this namespace, and the
namespace is not allowed to exist prior to adding a database to the
replication system. Thus, if you add a new node using pg_dump-s on a
database that is already in the cluster of replicated databases, you
will need to drop the namespace via the SQL command DROPSCHEMA_testclusterCASCADE; .

EXAMPLE

CLUSTER NAME = testcluster;
